Earlier this month future Bulldog Eva Fabian won the 2011 10k Open Water National Championships in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Fabian finished first among her female competitors in rough conditions and will now race in the 10k at the Open Water World Championships in Shanghai, China, at the end of July. If she finishes in the top 10 in Shanghai she will qualify for the event at the 2012 Olympics in London. At the moment Fabian is assessing the specific open water training and travel she will need to do to compete at this level and accordingly she may defer enrollment at Yale for one year.Thu, 23 Jun 2011 04:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/201106235l29wy2011-06-23T04:00:00ZTeuscher Featured in USA Swimming's Splash Magazinehttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110713912med

This weekend the Yale women’s swimming and diving team will head to Princeton, N.J., for the 2011 Ivy League Women's Swimming and Diving Championship. The Bulldogs ended the regular season with a win at home against Brown on Feb. 12., and so they will arrive in Princeton coming off a win and with what is arguably more important, a weekend of rest. This will be the last real meet that seniors Kristin Darwin, Ileana Lucos and captain Annie Killian will swim as Bulldogs. Many will be looking to make either A- or B-cuts (view qualification standards here) to be eligible to compete in the 2011 NCAA Women's Swimming and Diving Championships held on Mar. 17–19 in Austin, Texas. But this weekend, assistant coach Toni Pullman (Brown ’04) and Robert J.H. Kiphuth Head Coach Cristina Teuscher (Columbia ’00) will return to Ivy’s for their first time as coaches, looking to lead their squad to victory and bring home the trophy named after former Yale head coach Frank Keefe.Tue, 22 Feb 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110222xhufek2011-02-22T05:00:00ZYale Defeats Brown 171-129http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110212ke4fcr

The Bulldogs lead the Bears throughout the day and in the end won eight swimming events and both diving events. Saturday’s meet wraps up the regular season for the Bulldogs, and seniors Kristin Darwin, Ileana Lucos and captain Annie Killian were instrumental in making it a winning season with a record of 6-4.Sat, 12 Feb 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110212ke4fcr2011-02-12T05:00:00ZBulldogs Host Brown on Senior Dayhttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110210c71sy6
For the last time this season the Yale women’s swimming and diving team will compete in its home lanes and on its home boards in Kiphuth Exhibition Pool. The Bulldogs will host Brown for their now sixth consecutive weekend of competition. The meet is the Bulldogs’ last dual meet for the year and will be celebrated as senior day. Seniors Kristin Darwin, Ileana Lucos and captain Annie Killian will compete in their final home meet as Yalies.Thu, 10 Feb 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110210c71sy62011-02-10T05:00:00ZHuskies Narrowly Beat Bulldogshttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110206xbdyo6
Though many swimmers won individual events, the points simply did not add up for the Yale women’s swimming and diving team on Saturday. Out of 16 total events the Bulldogs claimed nine, yet still fell to UConn 157-143. This makes the Bulldogs 5-4 in dual meets for the season.Sun, 06 Feb 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110206xbdyo62011-02-06T05:00:00ZBulldogs to Face In-State Rivalshttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110203t9vyul
Now in the latter part of its season, the Yale women’s swimming and diving team will travel to Storrs, Conn., this Saturday to compete against the University of Connecticut Huskies. The Bulldogs fought hard but gave up wins these past two weekends, their dual meet record now standing at 5-3. UConn will then be good competition, given its dual meet record of 5-2. The Huskies have losses against Villanova and most recently Penn, whom the Bulldogs defeated on Jan. 15. The Bulldogs will be taking on the Huskies not only on their home turf, but also on their senior day. It will be interesting to see if the older program, Yale, can carry the state on its back, or if this “public ivy” will have the mettle to best its intrastate rival.Thu, 03 Feb 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110203t9vyul2011-02-03T05:00:00ZYale Has First Ivy Losses at HYPhttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110129e98bko
The second day of competition at the annual women’s swimming and diving meet between Harvard, Princeton and Yale came to a close today on a familiar note. The Yale women’s swimming and diving team fell to the Princeton Tigers, who have won the meet for the fourth year in a row now. The Bulldogs also fell to the Harvard Crimson, who head back to Cambridge with one win and one loss. Depth hurt the Bulldogs greatly this weekend as Yale fielded a 22-swimmer squad against the Harvard and Princeton teams, which are each pushing 40 swimmers and have diving squads at least twice the size as that of the Bulldogs. Princeton outperformed Yale 234.5-65.5; the margin against Harvard was closer with Harvard at 217 points, Yale with 83. The Bulldogs are now 5-3 in dual meets overall, 4-2 in the Ivy League with two meets left in the regular season.Sat, 29 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110129e98bko2011-01-29T05:00:00ZBulldogs Trailing After Day Onehttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/201101288lo09b
The first day of competition at Yale's annual meet with Harvard and Princeton concluded Friday at Kiphuth Exhibition Pool with the Bulldogs trailing both the Tigers and the Crimson.
The scores at this point stand at Harvard 106, Yale 44 and Princeton 122.50, Yale 27.50. The Tigers have won all nine events contested thus far.
The meet will resume Saturday with one-meter diving at 10:00 a.m. and swimming at noon with the 100-yard freestyle.
A full recap and complete results will be posted on yalebulldogs.com at the completion of the meet.Fri, 28 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/201101288lo09b2011-01-28T05:00:00ZCrimson, Tigers Come to Townhttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/2011012738xlr3
The annual triangle swim meet between Harvard, Princeton and Yale will take place in snowy New Haven this Friday and Saturday. The Bulldogs of the Yale women’s swimming and diving team will play host to the Crimson and Tigers for their fourth consecutive dual meet this month. The three programs of Harvard, Princeton and Yale account for 30 of the 33 Ivy League women’s swimming and diving titles, Princeton for nine of the last 11. Needless to say, a lot is at stake this weekend.Thu, 27 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/2011012738xlr32011-01-27T05:00:00ZAlbrecht Wins Three in Loss to Navyhttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110122hdqxhh
The Naval Academy women’s swimming and diving team narrowly outperformed the visiting Yale team earlier today. The short course meter format of the meet – as opposed to yards – was not a friend to the Bulldogs, who scored 139 points to Navy’s 161. Sophomore Molly Albrecht won all three of her individual events, and all told the Bulldogs won seven events, including the one- and three-meter diving. This loss is Yale’s first of the season, which puts their dual meet record at 5-1.Sat, 22 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110122hdqxhh2011-01-22T05:00:00ZYale Set to Race Against 9-0 Navyhttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110120frzqtu
For the third straight weekend this month the Yale women’s swimming and diving team will fight to keep this season’s dual meet record a perfect one. The Bulldogs will travel to Annapolis, Md., for a dual meet against the Naval Academy on Saturday. After last week’s win over Dartmouth and Penn, the Bulldogs are now 5-0. The Midshipmen or “Mids” are 9-0 following their win last week over Vermont, whom the Bulldogs defeated back on Dec. 4. Of its nine wins Navy has scored over 200 points in six of them. Come Sunday, one of these two teams will have its first dual meet loss of the season.Thu, 20 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110120frzqtu2011-01-20T05:00:00ZYale Takes Down Two in Ivy Leaguehttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110116m2e4jf
The Dartmouth Big Green and Penn Quakers fell to the Bulldogs of the Yale women’s swimming and diving team Saturday. Yale beat Penn 179-121, while Yale trounced Dartmouth 193-107.

The Bulldogs protected every last yard of their home pool, winning 12 out of 16 events including both diving events. The Bulldogs are now 5-0 in dual meets.Sun, 16 Jan 2011 05:00:00 GMThttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110116m2e4jf2011-01-16T05:00:00ZBulldogs To Race Against Quakers and Big Green at Homehttp://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/w-swim/2010-11/releases/20110113y4ahdn
The Yale women’s swimming and diving team will host the Dartmouth Big Green and the Penn Quakers Saturday in the Bulldogs’ first tri-meet of the season.

The Yale women’s swimming and diving team had a remarkable win Saturday over the University of Vermont Catamounts.
